Achieving general, efficient, and para-selective C-H amination under mild conditions remains a significant challenge. Here the authors report a fluorosulfuryl imidazolium triflate-mediated para-selective C-H amination of N-arylhydroxylamines for the synthesis of 1,4-diaminoarenes or para-azidoanilides.
